Case Study: Jersey Mike’s achieves real estate visibility and risk reduction with Leasecake

Jersey Mike’s scales to 3,100+ locations with Leasecake

Jersey Mike's, a fast-growing restaurant chain with over 3,100 locations, faced challenges in managing its vast real estate portfolio. As the brand scaled, it needed complete visibility across all leases, a way to mitigate risks from critical dates, and operational efficiency for franchise openings. Manual systems and spreadsheets could not keep pace with its disciplined growth, especially during a major private equity acquisition by Blackstone. Jersey Mike's turned to Leasecake's lease and location management platform for a solution.

Leasecake provided a centralized platform to track every lease and document, alert the team to critical obligations, and standardize data management. This solution gave Jersey Mike's the operational efficiency to support rapid growth and the transparency to build strong investor confidence during its acquisition. The results included significant risk reduction, stronger private equity relationships, and the scalability to support over 300 new store openings per year. Leasecake ensured the brand's leadership could focus on strategic growth rather than putting out fires.
